For separating waste from a fiber-and-waste mixture in a textile machine, the mixture is tangentially thrown from a rotating roll by centrifugal force. An air flow is directed onto the traveling particles of the mixture such that fibers are returned to the roll, while the waste particles are allowed to continue their travel. Subsequently, the waste particles are removed by suction.

Method and apparatus for separating waste from a fiber-and-waste mixture

A fiber processing machine has rotary components, a shroud surrounding the components at least laterally and from above, a suction apparatus including at least one suction head situated in the space surrounded by the shroud for drawing away, by means of an air stream, fiber waste released during operation of the machine. There is provided at least one blower head which is located between the rotary components and the shroud for introducing pressurized air into the space surrounded by the shroud.
